& Pray for the Solders Autumn smiled when he took the guitar and said fine. She then closed her mouth not saying another world and listened to him play. When he was done Autumn's mouth flew open it was amazing. "Wow that was really good."She said as she smiled. "My turn"She said as she took the guitar and smiled. She has never sung in front of anyone before but he childhood friend. She wasn't really the kind of person that did but she wrote a song with her step sister Sam and she would sing it.
Autumn got a little nervous thinking of what song to play, all of her songs where really bad, well that was what she thought. As she thought of a song she started to play and looked into his eyes as she opened her mouth to sing.
"Everybody tells me that it's so hard to make it,
it's so hard to break it,
and there's no way to fake it.
Everybody tells me that it's wrong what I'm feeling,
I shouldn't believe in,
the dreams that I'm dreamin'.
I hear it everyday,
I hear it all the time.
I'm never gonna amount to much
but they're never gonna change my mind.
OH!
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know something x3.
Tell me, tell me,
something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me,
something I don't know.
Everybody tells me
I don't know what I'm doing,
this life I'm pursuing,
the odds I'll be loosing.
Everybody tells me that it's one in a million,
like one in a billion
one in a zillion.
I hear it everyday,
I hear it all the time,
I'm never gonna amount to anything,
but they're never gonna change my mind.
OH!
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
I'm, on my way.
I know I'm, gonna get there someday.
It, doesn't help, when you say:
It won't be easy!
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know x3.
How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me,

Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't....... know x3."She then looked at him as she smiled and said " It's not that good, i really don't sing in front of people i'm not comfortable with."She said as she smiled meaning she felt safe around him.

Nate smiled as Autumn took his guitar from his hands. Once she sat down and started singing, Nate didn't even realize that it stopped raining. He was way too focused on Autumn's singing. She was so amazing. So amazing that Nate wasn't thinking about anything else but her.
Nate couldn't believe what Autumn said when she finished. Nate got up then playfully smacked her. "SHUT UP!" Nate said, loudly, "You are amazing," Nate continued, quietly. Nate smiled at her and looked Autumn in the eyes to motion to her that he wasn't lying.

& Pray for the Solders Autumn looked at Him as she played to him. He didn't seem to noticed that the rain stopped. She smiled at him as she was done and looked at him as he got up. She then felt the smack and her mouth opened. "SHUT UP!" She looked at him."You are amazing." Autumn got up and playfully punched him "Don't Smack me."She said as she smiled, knowing they where going to start a playfully fight of punches and smacks. She smiled as he motioned he wasn't lying "Thanks."She said as she handed his guitar to him with a smile.

Nate looked around then laughed. He looked at Autumn was a dirty look then smacked her back. "Then, don't smack me!" Nate said, while laughing. It sounded weird because he was trying to speak and laugh at the same time. It didn't sound so pretty when it came out of his mouth. But, Nate couldn't hold it in. He never could hold laughs in. He always tried then miserably failed.
Nate nodded his head then smiled. "Your most certainly welcome," Nate said in the sweetest voice. He secretly hoped that he wasn't sounded pathetic to Autumn. That happened a lot to him, sadly. Nate took his guitar from her then sat it down. He checked to see if it was sturdy in the position the guitar was in now then quickly focused his attention to the beautiful girl who was minimizing his loneliness.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn stood up next to him and smiled as she laughed at his voice. It didn't sound right when he tried to talk, it was a talk and laugh. Autumn looked at him and hit him again and ran into the moody ground and smiled as she stuck her tongue out at Nate. She smiled as she ran in circles until he tried to chase her.
{Eh, Sorry short reply!}

Nate laughed and shook his head as Autumn ran away from him. It was instinct for Nate to chase after her, which he did. If you were just a normal person, glancing at Nate and Autumn, you would have laughed out loud. For about a minute, all Nate was doing was chasing Autumn.
After that minute, Nate finally caught up to her. Once they ran on a not-so-muddy patch of grass, Nate tackled Autumn to the ground. Nate laughed as he was on top of Autumn. It might have looked really awkward but out of nowhere, Nate was treating Autumn like one of his best friends. Nate smiled at Autumn then started tickling her sides.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at Nate as he started to chase her and she ran faster. She smiled as she didn't look back and kept running. Everyone thought Autumn wasn't a runner but she was one, a good one at that. She use to race her best friends, that where all guys and she won most of the time. But she gets tired easily, that was when she slowed down, but she always pushed herself to do better and got better at running and now is faster.
Autumn felt her back hit the ground and she moaned a little as her back hit the ground. She smiled as she waved at him and tried to push him away from him, but she wasn't strong at all. As soon as she backed down she looked at him as he was pining her down. She then felt her side being tickled and she sighed. "I'm not ticklish."She said with a smile and tried to push him off of her again.

I'm not ticklish. Nate pouted and kept on trying to tickle her. Nate got fake angry then said, "If Nates says so, you are!" He laughed then gave up on tickling her. This wasn't fun if Autumn wasn't ticklish.
Nate laughed then he stayed in the position Nate was before. Nate kept trying to stay on Autumn as she tried to push him off. "I'm too strong for you, Autumn!" Nate said, laughing. Nate decided to get off of her then he layed down in the grass next to her.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at him as he tried to tickle her more "If Nates says so, you are!" Autumn smiled at him as she laughed at the comment. "Well so to get your hopes and dreams down."Autumn said as she made a frown face to him and smiled after. Everyone loved her smile also, she didn't know why. Every one of her friends came up to her and said i want your smile. But Autumn didn't care, she loved smiling and making every one's mood change. She would catch everyone at the worst time and smile and make them smile too. IT was so much fun, no one would smile back it was like a disease that everyone caught.
Autumn continued to try to push him off, but he just stay in the same position, pining her down to the ground. "I'm too strong for you, Autumn!"Autumn sighed as she tried to push him off still."I know."She said as she laughed and let out a sigh as he moved. "Gosh!"She said as she didn't move and inch. She smiled as she looked at him beside her.

Nate looked up at the sky as he heard Autumn talk. He rolled his eyes then continued looking at the rainy clouds. Nate hoped that the rain stopped there because he was having way too much fun with Autumn for it to end. Nate has never had this much fun just talking, playing in the grass, and playing his guitar with a girl ever. Nate sat up then looked over at Autumn. "So, do you go to school where you live?" Nate asked, still wondering about her. Nate asked that question because most of his friends were home-schooled.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at Nate that sat next to her and smiled.She then looked up at the sky as it was turning night time and the stars where coming out.She smiled as she looked at Nate and watched him look at the stars."So, do you go to school where you live?" Autumn nodded with a smile. "Yeah but for 2 mouths i've been to the school in Florida, then where moving near my dad."She said and smiled.

All of a sudden, Nate's thought turned into sad thoughts. Nate started feeling bad for Autumn and how she had to move a lot. Nate's family always stayed in one spot. He could feel her pain, even though it never happened to him. Nate smiled at Autumn, keeping the mood alive. "Eh," Nate groaned, quietly.
Nate looked at her then realized what Autumn said before about her dad. How he lived in Chicago. Nate looked into her eyes then said, "Hey, wait." Nate laughed then continued, "Won't you be going to the same school as me?" Nate asked that, then the whole mood changed. Now, Nate was really excited.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at him and gave him a smile.She wished she would go to the same school as him but it was a possibly, maybe. She hoped but it was where her step dads job took him. But still when she went to visit her dad she'll try to make effort and visit him at his house and they could see a movie or something. But she couldn't control anything, only she can hope.She didn't want to get his hopes down either but she had to say i don't know. "I don't know i hope so, I'm sick and tired of being away from my dad all the time. Also i hate losing my friends when i move again, i try not to make friends for that reason but i just can't. They come up to me and we become friends, i can't stop them. Just like my step dad's job, i can't control where they move to. I wish i could because then I'll put us near my dad and I'll have a friend."She said as she playfully punched him with a smile to lighten up the mood, if it was a sad mood she would start crying again.

As Nate was listening to Autumn, he knew he just earned a great friend. Autumn was amazing in Nate's book. She had the most amazing personality and no matter how hard she tried to hide it, loved to be positive. But, Nate thought it would be hard to be positive with all that was happening with Autumn.
Nate slightly frowned as Nate heard Autumn talk about moving everywhere and she never knew when they were moving or where. "You talking about me, Autumn?" Nate asked, sarcastly. He laughed then nudged Autumn back in return of her punch.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at Nate as she loved to listen to him. He was going to be a great friend for her, a friend she needed. A friend she couldn't leave without,A friend she could never lose. She would do the same for him, helping him out when he needed it,like he did to her. She liked him for being how he was, hopefully he would break his shell around her and come not so quiet. But that was his time to break and pass.
Autumn looked at him and smiled as she playfully punched him back."You talking about me, Autumn?"She smiled as she wrapped his jacket around her more. "Of course."She said as she smiled. "So do you want to do something....like take a walk?"She asked him as she smiled.

Nate smiled at Autumn then got up. "Oh, sure." Nate said. He was having such a good time with Autumn today. Nate highly considered her a good friend, his best friend at camp anyways. He definitely made his depression about Ashley go away.
Nate outstretched a hand to Autumn to help her get up. With that, Nate had a sweet smile on his face. Time to turn on his charm. Nate usually acted like a gentleman around girl's he liked. Nate hated seeing boys treating girl's like crap. It just wasn't right.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn smiled at him as she took his hand as she got up and stood next to him.She was neverous around her crushes, but they always became her best friends.Always, she always hung around her crushes because they where her best friends.She smiled as she started to walk over to the lake that lead to the beach after climbing the rocks. "ok so lets play a game to know each other more. Are you always this quiet?"She asked him as she walked next to him with a smile on her face, starting the game.

Once they started walking, Nate felt slightly embarrassed when Autumn asked if he was always quiet. Nate couldn't help it, he was shy! Usually, people looked at his brothers and assumed Nate was the same way but it wasn't like that.
Nate crossed his arms as he walked next to Autumn. How was he supposed to answer that? Not really. Only around beautiful girls! That sounded weird and crazy. Which wasn't Nate at all. Nate looked to the left of him and saw a bunch of trees. Two seconds later, he refocussed his attentions towards Autumn. "Uhm, kind of." Nate said. "But, I don't know why." Nate continued, telling the truth. He wished he would snap out of his quiet stage. Then, maybe Autumn would like him more. It didn't really seem like she was much amused.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn waited for the answer of the question. She really didn't care if he was going to be this quiet for the rest of his life he just wanted to know.She was quiet in a room fulled with no one she knew, she was shy sometimes. She was always shy and she broke out of that shell two years ago, meeting Jake. Man Jake was her best friend and she got out of her shell with him being crazy all the time.That was when she started to become crazy and more outgoing.
"Uhm, kind of." Autumn listened to him and smiled. "But, I don't know why." "It's ok to be shy."Autumn said as she put her hand on his shoulder and stopped to look at him for a bit and then walked again. She sighed as they reached the rocks "You ready?"She asked as she looked up at the huge rocks.

Nate now had this odd feeling that he had to stop being quiet. Not like he could decided whether or not to stop, but Nate would have to try a lot. Nate stepped on the rock next to Autumn then looked over at her. "I'm scared!" Nate said, softly. "What are we doing?" Nate continued. He then reached over and poked Autumn, making sure of not to fall off of the rock. That wouldn't be pretty.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at him and laughed. She smiled as she started to climb up the rocks and felt a poke at her side. Her hand slid and she looked at Nate as her other hand started to slip. "Ugh....Nate"She said as she tired to pull herself up but couldn't.

Nate looked over at Autumn, who was struggling, then got off of the rock. As quick as he could, Nate got to the rock Autumn was trying to get on. Nate grabbed a hold of her waist then lifted her up. "You okay?" Nate asked. "You better too with the help of such a strong man?" Nate continued, letting out a couple laughs.

Once they were on the rock, Nate sighed. He hugged Autumn then smiled. "Anytime." Nate said, sweetly. Right now, Nate felt like a failure. He didn't really know why but Nate could feel it inside of him. Did Nate have any questions for Autumn? Nate laughed then smiled. "Why are you so awesome?" Nate said, laughing.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn looked at him as they hugged, she was happy he was there or else she would have slipped and died, never seeing her dad again."Anytime." He better get use to doing that because she got into trouble a lot because she loved to try risky things and he would learn that sooner or later. Autumn still held onto him, being afraid of falling.
She looked at the rocks as the next on was the top of the mountain. She smiled as she left go of him and she pushed herself to go up the rocks."Why are you so awesome?" She heard Nate say and she laughed. "I'm not Awesome you are." She said as she got to the top and her mouth dropped. "Nate you go to come up here and see this."She said as she looked around and saw the sunset.

Nate smiled as Autumn was still holding onto them. The rocks were not very sturdy and not very big. Nate looked up at Autumn as they finally made it to the top. He laughed then asked, "What?" Nate looked where Autumn was looking and saw the sunset.
Nate took a seat at the top of the rocks then smiled as Nate was admiring the sunset. He always loved the sunset and the sunrise. Nate always thought it was beautiful. He was the only person he knew that actually took time and noticed the beauty of it. But, Nate was that kind of person. Nate looked in Autumn eyes then asked her, "So, you going to the dance?"

Post by Autumn Dawson on Sept 22, 2008 16:25:05 GMT -5
& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn smiled as he got to the top and she sat down next to him to look at the sunset. She thought the sunset was amazing and the most beautiful thing in the world. But she never met anyone that felt the way she did about them. She actually took time to go outside and look at them. In chicago she went on the roof and she would watch them. She remembered meeting a little boy up there and they where the same age, she was 3 he was 3. They sat on the roof of there houses and watched the sunset together. She hung out with the boy for a while then it stopped, it was the weirdest thing. "I loves sunsets. I remember going on my dad's roof just to watch them. And after i would look at the stars."She said as she smiled and looked at him.
Autumn looked into his eyes and then looked at the sun again. It was amazing how lucky she was to be here with him while the sun setted. But she wondered what happened to the little boy ontop of the roof and she can still see his face. He looked a lot like Nate but younger. "So, you going to the dance?"She heard him say and thought. "Maybe, i think i might go with friends, Sam maybe inless someone asks me."She said as she looked back at him and smiled. "Why? Are you going?" She asked smiling and looking into his big brown eyes.

Nate thought it was cool what Autumn was saying. He smiled at her then replied, "Seriously? Me too." Nate once woke his brothers up, when he was eight, and dragged his brothers outside. He made them watch the sunrise because it was the biggest one eight-year-old Nate had ever seen. It was kind of weird how Nate remembered that moment above anything else.
Why? Are you going? Nate smiled then nodded. He really wanted to go but wouldn't go without a date. Actually, Nate had the thought of going with his brothers but they had huge plans to ask other girls. That made Nate feel left out, so he decided to find a date or not go. Nate looked away for a second, breaking their moment of starring into each other's eyes, but then quickly returned his eyes back to hers. "Yeah, I was just wondering if . . ." Nate managed to give Autumn a smile then continued, "you wanted to go with me?" After those words came out of Nate's mouth, he felt a slight bit nervous but sucked it up like the person Nate was striving to be.

& Pray for the Soldiers Autumn smiled as she thought they had so much in common. She got up after her butt started to hurt and walked over to the edge and looked down. She was stunned and ran over to hold onto Nate. "It's a long way down. But lets go unless you want to start walking back to camp because it's getting late, but we can watch a movie or something."She said to him not wanting to leave him. He was amazing in so many ways, she loved him. Wait Little Miss Dawson has her first love and it was a guy she first met. Wait she didn't care how long they knew each other, she just cared for him.
But he still looked like the guy on the roof when she was 3 or was she 6.Maybe they did know each other longer, they hung out a lot after that and then slowly the friendship faded away. She looked at him and studied him, the only way to find out was to ask. "Hey You lived in Chicago when you where 6 right?" She asked him and smiled. "Because i always went to the roof and there was a kid that looked like you, he is are age now but we watched the sunset together and hung out a couple of times. But after that it was weird, things started to fade away."She said to him and looked around. She missed him, like her and Nate they had so much in common.
Autumn looked at him again and walked over to him, she looked down at him, feeling tall. Autumn has always been short but she didn't care, like she said to people she wasn't short she was fun-sized. "you wanted to go with me?" Those words repeated in her head as she wondered if she fell asleep. She pinched herself and then smiled, she was awake. "Yes Nate i will."She said smiling and went over to him and gave him and tight hug, like a couple hug.

Nate got up, still being aware of Autumn and his safety. He didn't want to spend the rest of camp stuck inside his room, playing guitar on his bed, because of inability to move. That would be the worst year of camp ever. "Let's go, then!" Nate said with a smile on his face, as he helped Autumn down to the next rock in the stack of huge rocks.
Nate gave Autumn a confused look as she described a boy she used to know. Nate thought about it then it made sense. Nate was in Chicago when he was 6. He did have a friend who Nate sat and watched the sunset with. Nate didn't know where she was right now. This couldn't be Autumn! That's too weird. "Oh my, that's YOU?" Nate said, as a huge smile on his face. "You used to be my best friend?" Nate continued. He was in a total state of shock right now.
Standing next to Autumn, he smiled, waiting for an answer. As Autumn was thinking, Nate was going crazy inside. What if Autumn didn't like him like that? What if she really thought he was pathetic and annoying? What if she just laughed at him? Nate didn't take rejection really too good. Nate's whole world stopped as he heard Autumn say yes then give him a hug. Nate wrapped his arms around Autumn, keeping them there for a second. This wasn't like past hugs in the day, this was way different. Nate liked it a lot. He smiled at Autumn then replied, "Really? That's awesome."
